    Underperforming XBLA titles to be delisted

    I hope you're right. I'm sorry if I'm a bit harsh with EA but, as I said, I'm on the developer' side so I naturally have something against major publishers (especially when they're IP collectors). I'm sure they have great people there but in most publishing companies, it's not the ones taking...

    Underperforming XBLA titles to be delisted

    That's excatly what I said. Gaia is the developer and EA is the IP owner (and co-publisher). Gaia needs EA (or any other publisher) to be able to pay it's employees (and the computers, the building, the bills and so on...) and the game has to be released for them to financially 'survive'...

    Underperforming XBLA titles to be delisted

    Ok, sorry, I didn't understand you were talking about EA (which in this case is just the publisher and owner of the IP). I thought you meant Gaia (as the developer - I didn't stop on the 'second' instead of 'third' because in the case of a small XBLA title, the second party just 'gives' the...

    Underperforming XBLA titles to be delisted

    LOAF, I know my English isn't that good but I'm pretty sure I said I was worried about the franchise, not the actual game (which I bought and, throw stones at me if you want, I don't play anymore for many reasons). I always considered Arena as a test run for a possible future rebirth of the...

    Underperforming XBLA titles to be delisted

    According to Joystiq, Microsoft plans to remove the games they consider too bad from the Xbox Live Arcade catalog. The games to disappear have to meet 3 criteria: be at least six months old, have a Metacritic score below 65 and a conversion rate below 6%. Since I guess WC Arena is close to...

    Good Texture Programs?

    Texturing program or unwrapping program? If you really mean texturing then Photoshop (coupled with Max) is still the best to me... But I think you're more looking for something like Bodypaint 3D. It allows you to work on the UVs and to directly paint on the actual 3D model... There's also...

    Bad Reviews (July 28, 2007)

    I'm sorry but the review on XBOX-360.FR is rather very negative. They start by talking about WC in general, explaining what it is about. They say the game should have been very cool with all the ideas, the universe, the concept of focusing only on battles and the multiplayer modes and... That's...

    Arena Review Revue (July 27, 2007)

    Just to let you know, if you want more, you should check gamerankings.com It will give you the list of all the major reviews so far. We even use it as some kind of reference in the game industry (along with MCV but I think it's mostly for Europe and I think it only talks about sales, at leats...

    Wing Commander Arena Released! (July 25, 2007)

    Just to let you know, Chris, there are only two modes available in the demo, the free for all one in this kind of big space junkyard (didn't really take time to look at what was surrounding me) and the part were you have to protect a bunch stations against asteroids. Nothing really interesting...

    Wing Commander Arena Released! (July 25, 2007)

    Can you tell me what makes it so good to you (except the WC Universe)? I've tried the demo this morning (Belgium here) and, to be honnest, I'm not sure I'll buy it. As a big WC fan (as you all are) I was really willing to, my MS points were ready, but now I really don't know anymore... The...
